Deepen into the May Energy and let’s talk about Mother’s Day.

Happy Magickal, Merry, Misty, Mischievous, Magnetic, Manifesting May Monday!

How are you delicious lovely?  How was your Beltane experience?

I made a lovely offering to the Fae of crystals, sunflower seeds, red wine and shiny coins.  I noticed a good chunk of the red wine was gone the next morning.  

So either there were some tippled faeries flying around or a tipsy racoon!

Okay my darlings, we have lots to natter about this week.  We have the Full Flower Moon, a big shift in May energy and of course Mothers Day all coming up this week.  

So grab a cuppa and get settled.

On Beltane I did a glorious ritual and really tapped into the intuitive energy of this month of May, as every May has a different energy. 

 For example last year was about Mental Clarity and Inspiration, this month the word that came to mind is Deepening.

The image I was shown was the ocean, that deep unknown that we play in, go to, feel the pull of the tides, but we don’t fully “know”.  

The Deepening energy of May asks us to really root into who we are, what we want and why we want it.  What are we here to share?  What are we here to learn?

It’s as if we are standing at a cliff edge looking at the ocean and being called to get closer, to really Deepen with a glorious warm Benevolence that wraps us up in a glorious blanket.  

The ultimate question of course is – are you willing?

When we live in a fast paced world being bombarded with all sorts of drama our nervous system can go into a fight/flight/freeze/fawn – so this is where Deepening comes in.  

Think of Deepening as a delicious Tend and Befriending of your core self, where you meet yourself exactly where you are – without the judgements or complaints.

After I had that download, the next day I went to the Ocean early in the morning, took Fearghus the swimming dog and walked.  Walked, threw sticks and watched Fearghus bring in the present moment.  The joy, the waves, the embracing exactly this moment.  

As I walked and dropped into that space I asked myself these questions – which I invite you to try.

How can I create a cycle of nourishment in my own life? 

How can I bring balance to the flow of giving and receiving?

What does it feel like to meet myself exactly where I am with no judgement?

Creating this harmony really begins with me and my inner state of being, and am I willing?

I found a glorious wee starfish who had been left on the rocks, and rescued and tossed him back.   And then the most amazing Raven kept coming closer and closer as I was about to leave and was only 10 inches away.

Deepening.  That is the invitation for May, and if you don’t have an ocean nearby, go to a river, a waterfall, a moving body of water!  Let me know how that feels for you.  

Sunday the 11th brings in Mother’s Day, and for me personally, it’s irrelevant if you have birthed children or not.  As we have all at some point in time nurtured, mentored, supported a child – whether they were ours or not.

I will be honest, I have learned so much from my five children – they have taught me amazing lessons, given me a lot of angst, and helped me to grow up.

I also realise that Mother’s Day can be challenging for some as there are so many energies that float around that day, there’s:- love, frustration, loss, grief, disconnect, yearning, joy, expectations, connection, being invisible – and so very many more. 

This will be the first Mother’s Day that I don’t go grab a ton of dirt, plants and planters and create amazing pots of flowers for my Mothership.  It feels very strange so I’m allowing it to be what it is.  

So remember:-

“Let everything that needs to go, go.  Let everything that needs to come, come. “

On that note, let’s crack on with the reading.

So gorgeous one, breathe.  Just breathe, BE and allow yourself to relax, your mind to calm, your breath to slow and ask your wise inner self – what do I need to know this week.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug at your heartstrings – don’t let your mind pick!

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

QUEEN OF HEARTS

Your heart has been chosen by the Divine to be a temple for spiritual light, an inner place where grace and healing can dwell.  This is very special. 

A temple is kept clean and pure, scented with sacred perfumes of incense, made beautiful with our feelings uncluttered and spacious so that as much spiritual presence as possible can enter.

When spirit enters and fills the temple of the heart, things of extraordinary beauty take place.  Even the seemingly impossible becomes possible.  Clear your heart temple with forgiveness, gratitude and love for the spirit, so it can fulfil its divine destiny of being a sacred channel for beautiful divine grace.

The mind may believe it has got the power to rule, but, in truth, the heart is queen.  You are a true goddess of love, one who consults the heart for answers.  You will courageously follow the guidance of the heart.  Even when the mind doesn’t want to surrender to the call of the heart, and fearfully lists numerous reasons why it is crazy and stupid and will end badly, you know that the doubt of the mind is no match for the power of the heart.  

Things don’t need to make sense to your mind or to anyone else, they just need to make sense to your heart.  You are already a divine queen, your heart aflame with passionate purpose.  Stay true to your heart’s wisdom and you will change the world!

SHAMAN OF SKULLS

In your heart, you have been asking for something different, something more, and the Universe is answering your prayers. 

You don’t need to be afraid of the changes happening, or that are going to happen, for you.  They are part of that answer from the Universe!  You might feel uncertain because you cannot see how it is going to all work out – but know that the Universe is caring for you, and will provide a way to move through the transition with grace.  

You are not crazy to willingly enter this experience.  There is nothing that you need avoid, and so much that you will gain.  

Something is ending.  Something that has meant a lot to you.  Maybe it is a relationship, a phase of your life, and identity that no longer suits you.  Maybe it is an inner ending that you can’t quite articulate, but you feel nonetheless.  This is a symbolic death with a greater purpose.  

The shaman is spiritually trained to overcome the fear of symbolic death and, instead of avoiding endings, to willingly go through them with the awareness that an ending is simply the other side of a beginning.  The shaman learns that endings happen when something new wishes to be born.  

Be patient with yourself, be kind, but also know that new life is happening for you now according to a higher purpose and loving plan.  Your life is meant to change at this time.  Be encouraged!  From the ashes of this symbolic death, you shall rise again.  

FINCH SPIRIT GUIDE

Finch Spirit Guide comes to you with guidance to care for yourself in a particular way.

Finches can become beautifully coloured, but only when they eat foods that nourish them. They have the power of beauty within, but they need the correct nourishment to be able to transform that potential into expression.

You also have beautiful divine potential to shine your light and beauty in the world, but you must feed your soul what it needs to do this. Be respectful and loving to yourself as you choose what to take into your being – be it physical nourishment or emotional energy or even the kinds of books you read and entertainment you watch, for all has an impact on you.

Do you feel better for the experience? Does it nourish your soul?

The best growth-enhancing food for your soul is that which increases love. 

Finch Spirit Guide also brings a prediction of a celebration of happiness ahead of you – and wants you to know that your connection to the spiritual worlds is real, to trust in the messages you feel from the Universe as they make themselves known in your heart.

It’s a good time to experiment with how to best care for your mind, body and soul. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about finding what works best for you. You are in a phase of your life where giving back to yourself is important.

Perhaps you have been sharing a lot of yourself with others, have come through a challenging time or, in the near future, will be stepping up in a new way to share more creative energy and soul fire than ever before.

All that you need to know now is that it is the right time to take extra special care of you.

Gorgeous one, wishing you a stupendous week, month of Deepening if you are willing. Sending you massive hugs and squeezes!
